models and mechanisms

ushin is not a large database, but a system for accessing information among databases on different websites.

ushin websites are independently managed by information sources clustered according to shared terminology, taxonomy and organizational systems.

this shared organization of online information allows unique ushin utilities to be available for public users and information sources.

the system is designed to be free to users, with ushin management costs shared by information sources - which includes all sorts of experts and groups placing their information online in ushin format.

ushin format is an individualized shared organizational system - ushin does not edit, censor or control information source data in this system.

ushin does not save any personal information from users, as users manage their own search terms on their own servers.
